Grand Canyon National Park, AZ – April 2012

Happy 94th birthday!

Created on February 26, 1919, Grand Canyon National Park is the second most popular park in the country, with almost 4.5 million visitors annually. A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979, it simply must be seen in person to begin to understand its beauty and sheer magnitude. Our wonderful stay in the park last April allowed us to experience great views and a hike into the canyon but at 277 miles in length, many return trips are in order (perhaps a rim-to-rim hike with a stopover at Phantom Ranch?).
